What are the specifications and model standards for high-altitude safety belts?

High-altitude safety belt specifications and models are m28955. Safety belt: High-altitude work safety belts are a type of labor protection safety belt. Based on their usage characteristics, they can be roughly divided into more than a dozen models. Although these models differ in appearance and structure, their safety usage standards are largely similar. Below is an introduction to the models of high-altitude work safety belts and detailed content on their correct usage standards. DXXY is a telecommunications worker suspended single waist belt type, T1XY is a general type I suspended single waist belt type, T2XS is a general type II suspended self-locking type, and T1XB is a general type I suspended double back strap type. Usage of safety belts: Each time a safety belt is used, check the label and certification, inspect the nylon belt for cracks, ensure the stitching is secure, check for missing, cracked, or corroded metal parts, and use the safety rope by attaching it to the connecting ring. Safety belts should be hung high and used low, avoiding swinging, collisions, sharp objects, and contact with open flames.
I just passed the certification for working at heights. The safety harness specifications must comply with the national standard GB 6095-2020. There are three types: pole belts, area restriction belts, and suspension belts, with the full-body suspension type ZG being the most common. The webbing must be 40mm wide, and the metal rings must have a tensile strength of no less than 12kN. When purchasing, always check the label, which indicates the manufacturer, model, and applicable height. For heights exceeding 2 meters, a safety rope with a shock absorber must be used. Before using the safety harness, carefully inspect it for wear and tear. Strength indicators must be tested every six months as a mandatory requirement.
Having worked in construction sites for over a decade, there are specifics when choosing fall arrest harnesses. National standard models must start with GB6095, models beginning with W are for pole work, and Z indicates fall protection. The harness width should be at least 40mm, made of flame-retardant fiber. The key is the quality of metal buckles, which must withstand 15kN tension without damage, and waist padding thickness should not be less than 20mm. I've seen too many accidents caused by substandard equipment—remember to discard any harness with an inspection label older than five years.
Safety officers focus on three key points when inspecting safety belts: Only W-type models can be used for perimeter rails, while Z-type is designed for fall protection. The tensile strength specifications require the main rope to be 15kN, and the secondary rope must not be less than 7kN. The latest standards mandate a double-hook configuration to prevent accidental disengagement. In practical use, a shock-absorbing rope should be paired to control the impact force during a fall. A five-point harness is significantly safer than a waist belt. The equipment has a service life limit of five years, and if wear exceeds 10% of the belt width, it must be scrapped.
